Hey is anyone asking Mothboy to prom.
He's cute and should have a date but I don't want to step on any toes.

[teratophilia]

you should. i bet he'd have fun.

[princeofcat]

I could know how to show a cryptid a good time.

Is there anything I should know about him first?

[teratophilia]

he has a NAME!!!!!

his name is rex. i mean, that's not his real name but that's what he goes by.

he likes video games. he doesn't like smalltalk. he's a Seer. he can also make really powerful sigils that destroy the vines. he gave me one so like.

[princeofcat]

Oh, cool.
Know what his real name is?
Or is it an unknowable mysterious kinda deal.

[teratophilia]

it's like... an inhuman shriek. he told me but i can't replicate the sound so he said i could call him rex.

[princeofcat]

I wish my name was an inhuman shriek.

[...] You sure you don't want to ask him? Two dates to prom wouldn't be bad.

[teratophilia]

you can change it when you turn 18.

no! i want to go with laszlo and only laszlo. i don't even know if rex has ever been to a school dance before. please just treat him very kindly and respectfully.

[princeofcat]

Just one year.

Yeah, but that's what I was thinking? I mean if he's stuck at this school instead of his house anyway. Might be fun for him. I'm very kind, normally.

[teratophilia]

i mean, someone needs to ask him. i just thought you'd be going with uriah, is all?

[princeofcat]

[...] Nope!

[teratophilia]

ohhh sorry !! i misunderstood then! you should totally ask rex. i bet he'd say yes, if it's you.

[princeofcat]

I'm sorry that we're both free for prom, it's a lot of pressure to put on one school, I know.

[teratophilia]

it is, honestly?? if everyone had known you were free, i doubt you'd have gone this long without a date.

[princeofcat]

I'm always free.
But thanks.

[nublada]

Do you think he knows you're thinking of asking him?

[princeofcat]

Oh, shit.

I mean, unfair if so.

[nublada]

Maybe he's been waiting in the wings for your invite, because he knew you were the date for him!

[princeofcat]

I'm not going to think about the implications this has to my own free will and hope that's true.

[nublada]

I think it's romantic! But in a high school prom is great! kind of romantic, not the Start of Our Love Story! romantic.

[princeofcat]

That's exactly what I'd be going for, are you sure you're not a seer too?
Hey who're you taking?

[nublada]

I've never had a complaint about my many, many completely accurate Arithmancy predictions!

While I was hanging outside the Hermeticism classroom yesterday I decided to ask Felicity's cardboard cutout. Do you think he'll say yes?

[bratsquatch]

doug bobson has never said no to a party once in his life

[nublada]

How elaborate of a promposal do you think he expects?? I don't want him to know how last minute this is.

[bratsquatch]

if you ask him with a powerpoint he'll be powerless to say no

[nublada]

Oh, a bland, middle-aged white man after my own heart.

[bratsquatch]

instead of a boutonniere, he'd like a pocket protector and a gibson martini in a flask

[nublada]

As long as I don't have to go to his son's soccer game!

[bratsquatch]

lets be real i don't think he's going to them either

[princeofcat]

Oh, ask math about this. Has Rex decided he'll say yes?

Doug Bobson would be so lucky.

[nublada]

Math says it'll be more satisfying to find out through firsthand experience!

Doug Bobson better know how to cut a rug. I'll be wearing the worst possible shoes for it!

[princeofcat]

Everyone knows what's going on but me!

If he doesn't, I will scold him. You can't waste bad shoes.

[shithowdy]

aint he like 50
mothdilf

[princeofcat]

He's hot for his age.

[shithowdy]

them fuckin
fuzzy ass wings n big red bug eyes
he can get it

[princeofcat]

Wings are cool. We're gonna float over prom.

[shithowdy]

ah shit yeah
be like "mcscuse me bitches royalty coming through"
as you gracefully glide in in his arms

[princeofcat]

Do a little kick at the commoners for fun.

[pageantree]

Oh, he does deserve a date!

[princeofcat]

Right? I think so too. He has to go to magic high school as a 50 year old, so he may as well reap the benefits.
